    Re: Do you really want the Biscuit to step in?

    There is a reason why Steve pays Ozzie big money to run the team. I hate the idea of the owner stepping in on decisions about assistant coaches. The GM though is a different story. Ozzie is a expert. He should be stepping in if he thinks something is wrong. And at this point it's too late for this season. It should be a post season move.

He simply wasn't putting in the requisite time necessary to be OC and it showed - and the other coaches - especially the coaches on the D - were very unhappy about it.

    Had it had only to do with the performance on the field - like it had been with Cavanaugh - I doubt Billick would have fired him.

    John, I know you think the surest route to the postseason is by playing low-risk football, and it's served us well over the last few years. You don't have to remind me how close we came to going to the Super Bowl last January.

    But from what I've seen, we don't have the personnel for that to be a winning formula for the rest of this season. After all the injuries, our players are not better than our opponents' and they are on the whole not as talented. Our plays and formations are being read like a book and every adjustment our coordinators make is slow to materialize, easily anticipated & quickly neutralized.

    We're lucky to be in a position where one more win will almost surely get us into the playoffs. But without a bit of luck, we could easily lose them all. Every one of our future opponents is a playoff-caliber team. Even if through some quirk in the standings we still got to play in January, I can't imagine any Ravens fan who would be happy to limp into the playoffs on a 5-game losing streak, or expect anything but disappointment once we did. I sure wouldn't. And while it's possible for one or more of the remaining games to fall into our laps & punch our ticket, backing in by a fluke would be almost as distasteful, & it's unreliable as well. We've already had a big helping of good luck this year.

    I and I think most Ravens fans would rather see us go down with guns blazing than to crabcrawl into the postseason & a probable exit in the first round.

    Now is the time to open things up & trust your players to make plays. If they can't, we need to know that going forward. It's time to start taking measured risks even though it's not how you'd rather play. And if your coordinators have any plans or plays in their back pockets they've been saving for the playoffs, it's time to think about taking them out & using them, because if we don't leave it all out on the field in December we may never get to January.

    If you think this is wrong, then tell me what you think is the right plan. I'd be happy if you can convince me there's a better alternative available.




    (Yeah, I wrote another book. It's not a bug, it's a feature--get used to it.)
    I think that kind of input is too meddling for an owner. All the owner needs to say to Harbaugh is, "This level of play is not sufficient. Fix it!". Then you sit back and see how he reacts. Harbaugh is much more likely to blame players than coordinators. Hell, the guy gives his coordinators game balls pretty regularly.

Cam is going on his third season of showing absolute ineptitude. It is quite obvious that Harbaugh has no intention of firing the guy. We have an o-line coach that you could make an easy case for firing him based on performance, but sadly, you have a slam dunk reason to fire him based on behavior. Harbaugh is not capable of pulling the trigger and firing a fellow coach, and it's a problem. It is not the owner's job to do that for him, and it could be detrimental to the team for an owner to do that. Owner's have egos, and sometimes when they make the right call it goes to their heads. The death of the Orioles happened when Angelos made one good call by overriding Gillick on trading Bonilla. After that Pete thought he knew more than the baseball guys.

    The bottom line is that if Harbaugh can't see, or refuses to accept, that these guys are holding the team back, then Harbaugh is actually holding the team back.
    Bisciotti is Cam's biggest fan. If he hasn't fired him over the last four years, he never will. Playing not to lose and hoping for good defense is how Bisciotti wants it. He doesn't want an exposive offense.

    Is it more likely that Bisciotti doesn't want to fire Cam because he likes a conservative offense (Cam isn't conservative. He's vanilla), or Harbaugh won't fire the guy that gave him his first football gig at Indiana?

    Great Comparison. 4-2 versus 9-3.

    I'd take Gruden over Harbs. Just saying.

    But yes he need's to say something. Just making the playoffs isn't good enough anymore, not when you have the roster the Ravens have. Biscotti is paying out alot of money and we're constantly close to the salary cap. Christ could you imagine what would happen if we flip flopped roster's with say NE and Bellichek got ahold of it? Even WITH Flacco instead of Brady? Christ can you say another dynasty?

    Bisciotti let Billick stand by Cavanaugh because he felt the HC should make those decisions. In the end, though, it was probably one of the several factors that help lead to Billick's dismissal.

    It may well be the same with Harbaugh if he doesn't cut bait this time.
